KSR’s 2024 Kentucky High School Football Top 25 Rankings: Week 8

There was plenty of movement in this week’s Top 25 rankings update, but not at the very top.

As has been the case since early in the season, the Boyle County Rebels continue to hold down the number one spot in the state while Paducah Tilghman and Trinity round out the top three. Franklin County jumped a few spots within the Top 10 while DuPont Manual saw an eight-spot jump after a huge upset win over St. Xavier. Elsewhere, Scott County broke into the Top 25 thanks to its win over South Oldham in the KSR Game of the Week.
